I collect geisha paraphernalia. I also collect pretty fans (the kind you wave in front of your face to cool yourself, not the kind who chase you begging for an autograph, although I wouldn't be opposed to those) and pretty rosaries. Perfumes, ballerina figurines, and ruby, emerald or moonstone jewelry are good too. As soon as I get a chunk of extra cash I'm gonna buy myself a stack of dresses and skirts and I'll never wear another pair of pants again. Real women wear skirts, you see.

I like the one of that Redscare-adjacent girl that says born circa 1988-1989, and how someone on the sub described it as "like a late Antiquity scholar". Still remember that quip and chuckle at it to this day

This is true, BTW, I just did an informal study out of interest and I found out that a lot of the top female scholars in maths and physics... well... to what extent is ordinary common-sense folk knowledge, understood by men and women since time immemorial, obscured by this fact?

Back in 2008, before the current panic, I happened to learn about Dierdre McCloskey and Wendy Carlos within a couple weeks. Just by happenstance. I feel like this early experience inoculated me before I got bamboozled by a psyop.

this is like 5x as true in programming circles. not wanting to even be mean, but if you ever come across a female name associated with very difficult and technical software work, such as compiler internals, kernel programming, or disassembly and reverse engineering, it is literally an 85-90% chance.

In the English-speaking sphere, it's probably 97%+. In China and Russia, due both to the lack of trannies as well as women being more willing to work in hard tech, the situation is much different.
Regardless, I'd like you to take a minute to think how frustrating and demoralizing it is being part of that 3%. Promise not to blogpost.

It's autistic-like traits and asociality which lead to interest in computers and also a lack of identification with their birth sex. High native IQ matters too, because people with a high IQ are more likely to be interested in unconventional things, like getting a sex change.
This subtype of transwomen don't seem particularly feminine in their youth, but do seem non-masculine. Whereas the effeminate subtype of trans would be accepted by the girls and largely rejected by the boys, the non-masculine subtype is more or less rejected by both. Social isolation is very common. One has to be sympathetic
>>7688
Go ahead and blogpost, if you want.
Also, I note your implicit suggestion that the reason women broadly haven't been successful in the mathematics and physics-related fields is because Western women lack the will to work in these fields, rather than their being unlikely to have the capability (see >>7683)

I did actually specify Anglophone tech circles as there is a real division between Anglophone and Russian & Chinese programming/development/hacking spheres, for the purpose of this specific discussion; and that, broadly, nearly everyone in the chart you posted would be involved in the former either in work or hobby, unless they are particularly invested or connected to the Eastern countries.

I am >>7682 and >>7690 and I specified 'top female scholars in maths and physics', and >>7865 mentioned 'very difficult and technical software work'. Your chart looks at the proportion of 'women scientists and engineers in the EU'; first, we are talking about high-performers, not ordinary people, and second, 'scientist' may encompass sciences quite far from the hardest of hard sciences, being maths and physics.
Moreover, Eastern European countries produce little in the way of technical innovation, and all their best scientists and particularly mathematicians come to the West. People of ~120 IQ are certainly different from ~140+ IQ, which McCloskey (mentioned above) and Massalin (https://lwn.net/Articles/270081/) certainly are (I could name many other names)

Oh we actually don't use the same definitions at all then, to me EU is part of the West.

It's a very meaningless and silly distinction and one not worth arguing about, and I regret stating it that plainly. In another context you would be correct of course. I am trying to prevent this thread being derailed by this particular argument since it is pointless and useless arguing over definition.
When I made the remark that I did, I did have in mind the noticeable difference in temperament between western and non-western women, "west" being strictly first world, west of the CIS bloc, countries. This overlaps pretty neatly with which areas have a proliferation of trans culture, thus tying back into the original remark about how every time you click on a visibly female profile or name, it's usually, well. Thus, I guess for the purposes of this discussion, and quite conveniently, the definition of a "western country" could be "where a female name on a github account is more likely to be tranny than a real woman"

It is often innovative, even if the social value is minimal. But what Adsense and SaaS-crap have funded are things like quantum computing, Linux development, CERN, I could go on... it is happening mainly in the West.
Anyway, I said that transgender women are massively overrepresented at the top of certain fields broadly connected to mathematics, being much more successful than biological women; it isn't really important what the great masses of scientists who just clock-in-and-clock-out are doing, but rather what is going on at the top, where it is, if not a male domain, an XY chromosome-only domain...
>>7697
I looked quickly at computer programmers things I'd consider interesting (highly technical and/or clever stuff) in Poland, Czechia and Germany and I'd say almost all of them are male-born. But it was only a brief, 5 minute look.

The focus has consistently been on people at the top of maths-related fields. Accounting, say, is maths-related but you don't need to be in the top 0.01% to do it
